Green Il Co.. in their report on cotton fu-
lures, say: ''The market looked rather tired
to-day, ana after some irregularity, finally
closed about hve points under last evening,
with the tone dull. Thesltuatlon at primary
points underwent 10 important change, in
deed. was 10 general way quite as strong
rs for some time. But Liver JoOl lost tone TO
moderate extent. and the immediate buy
ing capacity here having apparently for the
| time exhausted itself offerings became rather
| greater than the current demand could fairly
compass. On the whole. however. there was
and no development Of positive bearish
feeling wah shOWn.n
